Job Description
When you think of food delivery in the MENA region, we\xe2\x80\x99d be pretty surprised if talabat didn\xe2\x80\x99t pop into your mind first! Since delivering our first order in Kuwait in 2004, we\xe2\x80\x99ve grown quite a lot over the past 17 years.
Today, we deliver hundreds of millions of food orders, grocery items and other products per year, to our customers in nine countries throughout the region with more than 3,000+ employees! Our food delivery business works with over 27,000 brands and almost 50,000 branches, while our q-commerce concept, talabat mart, now delivers groceries to customers in Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman Qatar, and the UAE in 30 minutes or less!
Our philosophy is to make sure we do what is right for our ecosystem - our customers, our partners, our people, our riders, and the communities in which we operate. Our #techforgood program allows our customers a safe and convenient way to contribute to important causes in their community through donating to local and international charities directly on talabat with a focus on food insecurity in the region.

eXtreme Programming (XP) ,
Domain-Driven Design ,
Lean and
Continuous Delivery
We believe that the assumption behind the \xe2\x80\x9cSpeed vs Quality\xe2\x80\x9d mindset is flawed and that you can both have your cake and eat it too. For us, quality enables speed. Not in 2 years, but now.

We find that engineers seeking to understand our product and business better understand the context of their work, which helps them to innovate, deliver more value to their customers and find more purpose in their work.
